The Showdown - Head Down Lyrics

Lovesick, lost and cold and lonely
With a gutful of nothing
And I’m long since past my limit
But my fuse is just a string

Friend, you’ve shown me ever lonely
Trapped and pinned beneath your wing
Fear that takes the heart and shakes
And now it’s left its hooks in me

Lay my head down
Breathe the dream of darkness on its way
But I’m not afraid

Put my head down
Just believe the scars were worth the pain
'Cause I’m not afraid

Life and love and ever after
All I’d say and all I’d sing
Wash it down and starve it back
To sleep tonight and not to dream

Death and taxes forth and back
We go from sin to deadly sin
And I don’t know what the attraction is
But I don’t see an end

Lay my head down
Breathe the dream of darkness on its way
But I’m not afraid

Put my head down
Just believe the scars were worth the pain
But I’m not afraid

Lay my head down
Breathe the dream of darkness on its way
But I’m not afraid

Put my head down
Just believe the scars were worth the pain
'Cause I’m not afraid

Lay my head down
Breathe the dream of darkness on its way
But I’m not afraid

Put my head down
Just believe the scars were worth the pain
'Cause I’m not afraid
